    Where's the outrage that Mully is a gov't employee and on here all day?!?!? He's stealing your tax dollars (by your, I mean Californians, who already get taxed to shit as it is).

    Also, I bet we don't hear back on this until it's resolved, if at all.

    Ahhhhhh, that would be a bummer. It's been so enlightening for me, and I want to know what Toyota is going to do with the OPs motor.

    I’m going to start thinking Positive for the OP, like he hires Saul Goodman who files suit against Toyota Corporate and the dealership, Final settlement is a brand spanking new Toyota Pro (His choice of color) and 10K Punitive.

    Yeesh. You'd think a new cyl head would fix you up, but if the oil on the valve was from a cracked piston/piston ring, or worse, a scored cylinder sleeve . . . . and then the option is a salvage yard engine, I wish you the best of luck.

    Everytime I see that there is a new post to this thread I jump in hoping that it is the OP with an update... only to be disappointed. Let's all make a deal - no more posts until OP responds with an update. 3... 2... 1... Go!

    Thinking the O.P did not get what he wanted in repairs,so he doesn't want to post back here.The reality is Toyota only has to fix the known damage,not something that may or may not happen further down the line,the lesson is do your own plug changes and save yourself the headache.

    OPs last post - 5/24/19 9:56pm - post #122 - page 7

    Last seen on forum 6/9/19

    About 34 days have past since his last post. I suspect the dealer fixed whatever occurred. He joined 5 yrs. ago and had a single digit post count when this started. I do believe the OP has hit the trail.

    Do carry on with your mechanic/IT Mgr. bashing.

    If OP catches up on this thread, we might scare him away.
